The Executive Lounge service made our trip. Yen and Terrence went out of their way to make sure we were well taken care of! The concierge offered excellent theatre recommendations and booked for us to make it easy. …

Amazing hotel especially for families. Every member of staff is so friendly and polite. Special call out to Joseph on the door. The room was lovely and luxurious spotlessly clean and the breakfast was excellent. Finn had great fun hunting for foxes.

What a delightful hotel this is. They have a love of plants and the interior design is stunning. The team were really warm, friendly and attentive both in the lounge and at reception. Breakfast was certainly very worthwhile here. Great selection and variety. All in all - keep up the good work … and I will love to come back here.

We had a wonderful time at Hilton Bankside. The service in the bar was first class. Great cocktails and the bar snacks are very tasty. The staff are attentive and keen to meet your needs. We were particularly impressed by Sita who was always there with a smile and friendly demeanour.

Rating: 7/10Room: I've stayed here a couple of times in different room types. All have been nice, spacious, and clean. As of October 2024 there is construction work which is very noisy in some rooms so you may need to move if you get unlucky.Comfort: comfy bed and pillows, great blackout blind. Rooms are quiet enough.Amenities: Wifi is great, room service is very good (especially breakfast).Location: great location in Southwark, short walk to interesting things and the Jubilee and national rail. Grocery stores right across the street.Price: on the pricey side for what you get but it's very central.Other: nice lobby and bar downstairs, never used the leisure facilities but they seemed nice.

So firstly, I am not rich and the reason I put good value as a tick box below is because I have only ever stayed here as a last minute booking once the price isn't crazy. My rating is based on the fact that I don't pay the "normal "price. Its a great hotel, love its location (short ish simple walk from Southwark tube station) and its not hugely noisy with traffic as its a quieter street. The rooms are all good sizes, the bathroom is lovely, bed huge and the service has always been great even though compared to some of the guests I look " normal " not wealthy etc. The breakfast is so good, so much choice its unreal. All the different kinds of milk, and gluten free section etc. Yum. Will hopefully be back soon. Love this hotel. (Photos from stay in 2023)

Very close to the Tate Modern. Love visiting this gem of a place for food and drinks! The staff are polite but unobtrusive and the dinner was sublime! Must revisit when I visit that area once again! And I must mention the lavish decor of the lobby - very modern and very chic with gorgeous floral arrangements! The room was spacious and the bathroom was modern and extremely clean!

We loved our stay there. Unfortunately, we had to shorten our trip due to personal issues, but we would like to come again for a longer visit.The hotel has very friendly and attentive staff. They are very kid-oriented and have an amazing playroom and very nice amenities for children: a welcome package, a nice bed with a cozy blanket and pillow, a candy bar, bathrobe, and slippers. Every detail was perfect, and the small gifts were a really pleasant touch.We also had lounge access. They serve good evening snacks and drinks. If you want a quiet breakfast, it’s the right place for that. We were not particularly impressed by the breakfast itself; for example, their sister DoubleTree in Greenwich offers a much better breakfast. But despite this, we still enjoyed our stay.The hotel is very well located, and you can easily reach all the main attractions.On our last day, when we realized we needed to get back home and couldn’t use the evening happy hour and breakfast, the hotel kindly offered us a complimentary lunch.So, I can highly recommend this hotel if you are traveling with a child.
